Quota History not getting purged
Hi there, We have installed a local copy of galaxy but there seems to be a strange behavior with deleting data sets in the history panel. A few users complain that they have deleted their data sets (I can confirm that) but somehow the quota limit still doesn't show the appropriate freed space. Looking at their saved histories and adding up their data the quota limit should have changed. Any clues why this happens? I have also tried to run the clean up script but this didn't do anything on their quota limits. Best, Alex

Does this help, or make no difference? $ cd scripts $ python set_user_disk_usage.py It will recalculate and update the user disk totals, and prints this to the terminal too. Peter
Perfect! This solved my problem. Alex On Fri, Mar 14, 2014 at 1:23 PM, Peter Cock <p.j.a.cock@googlemail.com>wrote:

That's progress. I suspect something is going wrong in the cleanup scripts failing to update the totals - but as a workaround you could include set_user_disk_usage.py as part of the cleanup cron job? Note set_user_disk_usage.py isn't on the wiki - so I assume it isn't intended to be needed this way: https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Performance/Purge%20Histories%20... I've been looking at our data usage figures this week as part of a storage move - and also observed the totals can fail to drop after a user permanently deleted some large datasets & I'd run the cleanup scripts.
